The Los Angeles Dodgers placed right-handed starter Tyler Glasnow on the injured list ahead of Friday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals because of elbow tendinitis. In a corresponding move, the Dodgers recalled lefty Justin Wrobleski from Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Glasnow, 30, is making his second trip to the shelf this summer. He previously missed nearly three weeks in July because of lower back tightness. Acquired from the Tampa Bay Rays over the offseason, Glasnow has compiled a 3.49 ERA (114 ERA+) and a 4.80 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 22 starts.

It's worth noting that Glasnow has already established a new career-high in innings pitched with 134 frames. His previous career best was 120 innings, established last season. Otherwise, Glasnow had cleared the century mark just one other time, with that coming back in 2018.
